Yersinia vs FFUF: Which Domain Names tool is Best in 2025?

Yersinia is an open-source, robust framework for executing layer 2 (Data Link Layer) network attacks, designed to exploit vulnerabilities in various network protocols. Integrated into Kali Linux, Yersinia empowers cybersecurity professionals, penetration testers, and network administrators to analyze and test the security of deployed networks. Named after the plague-causing bacterium Yersinia pestis, it targets protocols like STP, DHCP, CDP, and VLAN, enabling users to simulate attacks such as DHCP starvation, VLAN hopping, and spanning tree manipulation.

FFUF, which stands for Fuzz Faster U Fool, is a blazing-fast, open-source web fuzzing tool written in Go, pre-installed on Kali Linux. Designed for penetration testers, ethical hackers, and bug bounty hunters, it excels at discovering hidden directories, files, subdomains, and parameters on web servers. Its lightweight, modular architecture supports directory enumeration, virtual host discovery, and GET/POST parameter fuzzing, making it a versatile choice for web application security testing.
